thread seems to have lost all steam after that rather convenient price hike and the collar gap

Waiting on my jacket in the next batch, personally. Don't know how much 'steam' a thread can have given that it's a fixed single model that's already been discussed ad nauseam in terms of design/cost/collar gap.

Your wait is almost over! Your Daredevil, along with the rest of the May order batch, has just shipped out to us today--we should receive the jackets in about a week and we'll contact everyone who placed their order in the May batch once we've completed inspection!

1st run of custom Daredevils have arrived!

Paging @LaymanX ! Custom fit Daredevil with solid red lining (much more of a true red than what is shown in the photos below)--very 1960s British rocker!

Vanson Daredevil crosszip jackets are made right here in the US (Fall River, Massachusetts). Each jacket is branded with a unique serial number (on the leather key fob and on the leather facing of an interior pocket) that is associated with all the specs for your custom order! The Vanson factory has a one year warranty against defects, but we take care of our Thurston customers in-house for all Vanson (and Aero) repairs!

Of note, I removed the taper that causes the 'skirt' issue that some other people commented on. I'll upload some fit pics when I get the jacket to illustrate the difference for taper vs non-tapered.

Have you already sent out emails to everyone you have a jacket for?

We're still working on the emails...however, I think your jacket was in this batch...we're just sorting and performing our QC on this production batch this morning...
